Life In 19x19

It looks like Korean Baduk Association does not really want to amplify this case, partially because of the pro player's age (just 13). She did admit she used AI. I know "confession alone" cannot be enough to determine if one is guilty, but many players and fans were almost certain that she used AI even before the confession, and I do not think there is any issue left. She did cheat, and I have no doubt about it.

KBA banned her for one year. Well.. many people complain that the punishment is too weak. Again, her age surely was a factor for this decision. From their announcement, it looks like three year ban will be the standard punishment for the future cases.

Just to clarify the new regulation, the future case will be subject to the ban of "at least" three years.

It may be a lifetime ban. We can only guess until the next case happens.

I recently received an e-mail which suggests that China has an AI detection system (the mail says that it will be used for the final stages of the competition https://www.facebook.com/2020WYAWT/). Has anyone heard about it? Is it similar to the one used by Antti Törmänen?
